InjectScan: Prompt-injection scan: text

scan_text

Read-onlyIdempotent

Scans untrusted text (web page text, emails, documents, tool results, another agent's message) for prompt injection before your agent acts on it: instruction overrides, jailbreak personas, system-prompt extraction, fake delimiters, exfiltration URLs, tool hijacking, hidden Unicode, encoded payloads. Deterministic rules; up to 100000 characters. Returns risk_score (0-100), verdict (safe | suspicious | malicious), categories[] and findings[]. Free: 30 calls/day per IP shared with scan_url and scan_tools. Not for: links (use scan_url) or MCP tool definitions (use scan_tools). A safety signal, not a guarantee.

[InjectScan via YourAITools MCP Hub] Free tier: same as InjectScan's own MCP server (call without payment and without tier). Paid: scan $0.003 per call, with a credits key (Authorization: Bearer yatc_...) or x402 (USDC; the hub returns the payment terms). Failed tool calls aren't charged: credits are refunded automatically and x402 payments only settle on success.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`url`	No	(paid calls only)
`text`	Yes	The untrusted text to scan, as one plain string (1-100000 characters; longer text is truncated and flagged). Offsets in findings refer to this string.
`tier`	No	Paid tier: scan $0.003. Omit tier (with no credits key or x402 payment) to use the free tier.
`tools`	No	(paid calls only)

A4.6/5.0

Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations, it discloses the detection method (deterministic rules), input limit (100000 chars), return shape (risk_score 0-100, verdict enum, categories[], findings[]), free-tier quota (30 calls/day per IP, shared with scan_url/scan_tools), pricing, and refund-on-failure semantics. It also honestly frames the output as 'a safety signal, not a guarantee' — context an agent cannot get from annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Front-loads the core purpose, threat list and sibling routing, which is the right ordering. The trailing hub/payment paragraph is longer than strictly necessary for an agent deciding whether to call the tool, though the free-quota and refund details do earn some of their space.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

No output schema exists, yet the description names every returned field and its value range, plus quota, cost, and truncation behavior. Nothing an agent needs to call it correctly or interpret results is missing.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents text, url, tier and tools. The description adds little parameter-level detail beyond restating the 100000-character cap that the schema already specifies; baseline 3 applies when the schema carries the load.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb (scans) and resource (untrusted text), enumerates the concrete threat classes it detects, and explicitly names the two sibling tools it is not (scan_url, scan_tools). An agent can distinguish it from every other scan_* sibling without opening a schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives explicit usage context ('before your agent acts on it') and an explicit exclusion list routing links to scan_url and MCP tool definitions to scan_tools. This is the when/when-not/alternatives pattern at full strength.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
